Your private tour begins with pickup in Milan. The drive to Lake Garda takes you southeast through the Lombardy plain, with the landscape gradually giving way to the hills framing the southern tip of the lake.

The Scaligero Castle of Sirmione guards the entrance to the peninsula's historic center and stands as one of the rare surviving examples of a fortified lake harbor in Italy. You will visit the fortress itself, with its towers and battlements offering views across the water in multiple directions.

The archaeological site known as the Caves of Catullus occupies the northern tip of the Sirmione peninsula and preserves the remains of a substantial Roman villa complex. The setting, perched above the lake with remains of vaulted halls and terraced gardens, gives a clear sense of the scale of Roman lakeside occupation.

Ca' del Bosco's cellar building emerges from the Franciacorta hillside as a wave-shaped structure aligned with the natural contours of the land. Inside, you can observe the gravity-fed fermentation process, walk through the stainless steel winemaking areas, and see the aging galleries before the visit concludes with a guided tasting.

The Bellavista estate occupies a hillside in Erbusco with an open outlook toward Lake Iseo and the broad Po Valley beyond. The cellar is built into the hill through two terracotta-lined galleries, with a glass and wood main structure that keeps the surrounding vineyard landscape consistently visible during the visit.

The tour concludes with the return drive to Milan, completing an eight-hour day that has covered two distinct landscapes and cultural registers of the Lombardy region.
